Keep reading with our therapy dogs! Meet Clover, Omega, Rusty, and Janie -- Turner and Zoe are on vacation this month -- at Read to a Dog on Saturday, March 7th from 11:00 am to Noon. This program is open to ALL ages and reading abilities, both readers and pre-readers.

Reading aloud to non-judgmental listeners (like dogs!) boosts confidence and improves reading and recitation skills. Moreover, reading together helps to reinforce letter recognition and vocabulary, and it creates a stronger bond with books. It's also a lot of fun! Don't believe us? Check out these great photos from our February session.

Ready to sign up? Cool! Please register below. Woof!
